Iratxe García, MEP and chair of the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament, criticised the EU’s inaction regarding Gaza on Tuesday at the Fórum Europa in Brussels and once again called for the suspension of the Association Agreement with Israel.

García made these remarks at this briefing organised by Nueva Economía Fórum in the EU capital, where she criticised the EU’s lack of action in the face of the conflict in Gaza and denounced the “impunity” with which the Israeli government is acting.

Iratxe García, MEP and chair of the Social Democrats in the European Parliament, accused the PP on Tuesday at the Fórum Europa in Brussels of breaking the “traditional European alliance” by striking a deal with the “far right” and of using “fake news” to attack the government over the migration crisis affecting Ceuta.

García made these remarks at this briefing organised by Nueva Economía Fórum in the EU capital, where she accused the European People’s Party (EPP) of breaking the “traditional pro-European alliance” by negotiating and striking deals with the “far right”. The Socialist leader warned that there are insurmountable “red lines” when it comes to human rights and dignity, and said that if the EPP competes using the language of the far right, “we know who will win”.

Iratxe García, MEP and president of the European Social Democrats in the European Parliament, called on the EU on Tuesday at the Fórum Europa in Brussels to continue supporting Spain in the face of the migration crisis unfolding in Ceuta following the mass influx of migrants, in contrast to the stance taken by the Italian Prime Minister, Giorgia Meloni, who decided to temporarily suspend the application of the Schengen Agreement with Spain.
 
García made these remarks at the event organised by Nueva Economía Fórum in the EU capital, where she noted that “the crisis in Ceuta has put European solidarity to the test” and, in her view, demonstrated “how easily migration can be used as a political weapon”.
 

 The President of the European Committee of the Regions, Kata Tüttő, defended on Tuesday at the Fórum Europa in Brussels the role of socialists in the EU in the face of the “authoritarian momentum” posed by certain technologies and powers. 
 
Tüttő made these remarks at the event organised by Nueva Economía Fórum in the EU capital, where she introduced Iratxe García, MEP and president of the Group of the Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament. In this context, she encouraged socialists to continue contributing concepts such as “cohesion, solidarity and dignity” to the EU. She emphasised that these concepts must be grounded in “the social technologies and infrastructure necessary for the sustainability and political stability of the European project”. 
 

The chair of the Group of the Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament, Iratxe García, will use the State of the European Union Debate to call for “a change of course”, as she revealed on Tuesday at the Fórum Europa  in Brussels.

Speaking at this briefing organised by Nueva Economía Fórum in the EU capital, García stated that during the State of the EU Debate, which will take place on  September 16th, she will call in her speech for “a change of direction” for the EU that goes “beyond mere announcements”.
